Abstract: Any Agreement State licensee who engages in the use of radioactive material in non-Agreement States, areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction, or offshore waters, under the general license in 10 CFR 150.20, is required to file, with the NRC Regional Administrator for the Region in which the Agreement State that issues the license is located, a copy of NRC Form 241 ("Report of Proposed Activities in Non-Agreement States, Areas of Exclusive Federal Jurisdiction, or Offshore Waters"), a copy of its Agreement State specific license, and the appropriate fee as prescribed in 10 CFR 170.31 at least 3 days before engaging in such activity. This mandatory notification permits the NRC to schedule inspections of the activities to determine whether the activities are being conducted in accordance with requirements for protection of the public health and safety.

Short Statement: Based on experience and data collected on submissions on an annual basis for the last 2 years, the NRC expects the same pace of submissions to continue and therefore, to receive approximately the same number of submissions per year for the next clearance period. Since the last clearance period, the NRC has gained access to improved data collections methods. From 2015 to 2016, an average of 1,720 forms was estimated to be filed annually. The previous estimate was 1,020 forms (based on a review of the estimated actual number of forms received from 2011 to 2013), an overall increase of 700 forms. The number of initial submissions increased from 153 to 200 (an increase of 47 forms, 23.5 hours of burden); the number of changes to the initial forms submitted increased from 805 to 1,520 (an increase of 715 forms, 179 hours of burden); and the number of clarifications decreased from 62 to 0 (a reduction of 62 forms, 15.5 hours of burden). As a result of the reduction in the estimated number of forms filed annually, the overall burden estimate has increased from 293.25 to 480 hours (a net increase of 186.75 hours). The increase in initial submissions and submissions changing initial submissions may be attributed to improved data collections methods at the NRC. The decrease in Clarifications can be attributed to the Clarification category being phased out since that check box is no longer physically present on NRC Form 241. In addition, the hourly rate decreased from $272/hour to $265/hour.
